October 30, 2007
 
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Future Now Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (referred to herein as the “Borrower”), with offices at 55 Washington St., Suite 419, Brooklyn, NY 11201, hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of PROFESSIONAL TRADERS FUND, LLC, its endorsees, successors and assigns (the “Lender”), in lawful money of the United States, at 1400 Old Country Road, Suite 206, Westbury, New York 11590, or such other address as the Lender may from time to time designate, the principal sum of Three Hundred and Thirty-Three Thousand, Three Hundred and Thirty-Three Dollars ($333,333) (the “Loan”). This Debenture shall mature and become due and payable in full on October 30, 2009 (the “Maturity Date”).
 
1.  Terms of Repayment. Principal of and interest on this Debenture shall be paid by the Borrower as follows:
 
(a)  Interest at the rate of eleven percent (11%) per annum from the date hereof through the Maturity Date shall be prepaid by deduction from the amount wire transferred to the Borrower for this Debenture on the date hereof.
 
(b)  Principal shall be due and payable as follows:
 
Beginning on April 30, 2008 and on the first day of each month thereafter, unless deferred by Lender under the Deferral Right, defined below, principal in the amount of $16,666.67, representing 5% of the original principal (the “Principal Payment”) of the Loan, shall be due, and (x) prior to the effective date of the filing of an SB-2 representing the Lender shares, as further described in the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Effective Date”), an additional premium to compensate the Lender for the risk of holding Borrower’s securities (the “Risk Premium”) equal to 20% of each such Principal Payment and (y) after the Effective Date, for each such payment that is due and made in cash (the “Cash Principal Payment”), a Risk Premium equal to 15% of each such Cash Principal Payment. Should the Borrower elect to pay in Common Stock after the Effective Date, the Risk Premium is not applicable and the Principal Payment subject to the Percentage Cap will be valued at the lesser of the Fixed Conversion Price (as defined in Section 2, below) per share or 80% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of payment. "Fair Market Value" on a date shall be the average of the daily closing prices for the five (5) consecutive trading days before such date excluding any trades which are not bona fide arm’s length transactions. The closing price for each day shall be (a) if such security is listed or admitted for trading on any national securities exchange, the last sale price of such security, regular way, or the mean of the closing bid and asked prices thereof if no such sale occurred, in each case as officially reported on the principal securities exchange on which such security are listed, or (b) if quoted on NASDAQ or any similar system of automated dissemination of quotations of securities prices then in common use the mean between the closing high bid and low asked quotations of such security in the over-the-counter market as shown by NASDAQ or such similar system of automated dissemination of quotations of securities prices, as reported by any member firm of the New York Stock Exchange selected by the Lender, (c) if not quoted as described in clause (b), the mean between the high bid and low asked quotations for the shares as reported by NASDAQ or any similar successor organization, as reported by any member firm of the New York Stock Exchange selected by the Lender. If such security is quoted on a national securities or central market system in lieu of a market or quotation system described above, the closing price shall be determined in the manner set forth in clause (a) of the preceding sentence if bid and asked quotations are reported but actual transactions are not, and in the manner set forth in clause (b) of the preceding sentence if actual transactions are reported. Lender’s “Deferral Right” means that the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion may defer any scheduled payment of principal, in whole or in part, by giving three (3) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower, with any such deferred principal payment, in whole or part, becoming payable on Lender’s written demand, which shall be given no fewer than ten (10) days’ written notice.
 
1

 
(c)  The Borrower further agrees that, if any payment made by the Borrower or any other person is applied to this Debenture and is at any time annulled, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of any property hereafter pledged as security for this Debenture is required to be returned by Lender to the Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including, without limitation, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Borrower’s liability hereunder (and any lien, security interest or other collateral securing such liability) shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made, or, if prior thereto any such lien, security interest or other collateral hereunder securing the Borrower’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender, this Debenture (and such lien, security interest or other collateral) shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower in respect to the amount of such payment (or any lien, security interest or other collateral securing such obligation).
 
2

 
(d)  All computations of interest shall be made by Lender on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a business day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest.
 
(e)  The Borrower may prepay all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, together with interest accrued, if any, excluding the interest that was prepaid as described in Section 1 (a) above on the amount prepaid through the date of prepayment, plus a premium, upon not fewer than ten (10) trading days’ prior written notice to the Lender. In the event such prepayment occurs prior to October 25, 2008, the amount paid shall be 125% of the principal deemed prepaid, and in the event such prepayment occurs after October 25, 2008, the amount paid shall be 140% of the principal deemed prepaid.
 
2.  Conversion.
 
(a)  The Lender shall have the option, at any time on or before the Maturity Date, to convert the outstanding principal of this Debenture into fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Borrower’s Common Stock at the rate per share equal to the lowest of (i) the Fixed Conversion Price, (ii) the Lowest Fixed Conversion Price or (iii) the Default Conversion Price (the "Conversion Rate"). As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:
 
(i)  Fixed Conversion Price means $.35.
 
(ii)  Lowest Fixed Conversion Price means the lowest price, conversion price or exercise price set by the Borrower in, respectively, any equity financing transaction, convertible security, or derivative instrument issued after the date hereof.
 
(iii)  The Default Conversion Price means (if and so long as there exists an Event of Default hereunder) 70% of the average of the three lowest closing prices of the Common Stock during the twenty-day trading period immediately prior to a notice of conversion.
 
(b)  In the event the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock for at least the immediately preceding ten consecutive trading days prior to delivery of a Borrower Conversion Notice (defined below) is not less than 175% of the Conversion Rate in effect on the date of such Notice and if, but only if, on such date a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is effective covering sales of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Debenture, then the Borrower may require the Lender to convert the remaining principal amount outstanding of this Debenture by sending a notice (the "Borrower Conversion Notice") to the Lender directing such conversion. In the event such registration statement for any reason, whether by stop order, lapse of time or other event, becomes ineffective or otherwise unavailable for the sale of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture at any time within ninety (90) days after such conversion, the Lender may deem the conversion null and void and the Borrower shall, upon request of the Lender and receipt of any stock certificates held by the Lender evidencing shares issued upon such conversion, reissue this Debenture for the remaining principal amount and pay any principal that would have been payable during such period, all as if such conversion had not occurred.
 
3

 
To exercise any conversion, the holder of this Debenture, either upon its own election or following receipt of the Borrower Conversion Notice, shall surrender the Debenture to the Borrower during usual business hours at the offices of the Borrower, accompanied by a written notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, Notice of Conversion, and made a part hereof.

(c)  As promptly as practicable after the surrender of this Debenture by the Lender, the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lender, certificates for the full number of Shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture, in accordance with the provisions hereof, together with a duly executed new Debenture of the Borrower in the form of this Debenture for any principal amount not so converted. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at the time that this Debenture was surrendered for conversion and the notice specified herein shall have been received by the Borrower.
 
(d)  The number of shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture or repayment by the Borrower in shares shall be proportionately adjusted if the Borrower shall declare a dividend of capital stock on its capital stock, or subdivide its outstanding capital stock into a larger number of shares by reclassification, stock split or otherwise, which adjustment shall be made effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend, and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision. The number of shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture or any part thereof shall be proportionately adjusted in the amount of securities for which the shares have been changed or exchanged in another transaction for other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property pursuant to a merger, consolidation or other combination. The Borrower shall promptly provide the holder of this Debenture with notice of any events mandating an adjustment to the conversion ratio, or for any planned merger, consolidation, share exchange or sale of the Borrower, signed by the President and Chief Executive Officer of Borrower.
 
(e)  Percentage Cap. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Debenture, in no event (except (i) as specifically provided in the Debenture as an exception to this provision, (ii) during the forty-five (45) day period prior to the Maturity Date, or (iii) while there is outstanding a tender offer for any or all of the shares of the Borrower's Common Stock) shall the Lender be entitled to convert this Debenture, or the Borrower have the obligation or option to issue shares upon such conversion or in lieu of cash payments hereunder, to the extent that, after such conversion or issuance the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Lender and its affiliates, and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Debenture with respect to which the determination of the proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Lender and its affiliates of more than 4.99% (the "Percentage Cap") of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (after taking into account the shares to be issued to the Lender upon such conversion). For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
3.  Liability of the Borrower. The Borrower is unconditionally, and without regard to the liability of any other person, liable for the payment and performance of this Debenture and such liability shall not be affected by an extension of time, renewal, waiver, or modification of this Debenture or the release, substitution, or addition of collateral for this Debenture. Each person signing this Debenture consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications, as well as to release, substitution, or addition of guarantors or collateral security, without affecting the Borrower’s liabilities hereunder. Lender is entitled to the benefits of any collateral agreement, guarantee, security agreement, assignment, or any other documents which may be related to or are applicable to the debt evidenced by this Debenture, all of which are collectively referred to as “Loan Documents” as they now exist, may exist in the future, have existed, and as they may be amended, modified, renewed, or substituted.

12.  Governing Law. This Debenture shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided that the Borrower may not assign this Debenture, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Lender. The Lender may assign or otherwise participate out all or part of, or any interest in, its rights and benefits hereunder and to the extent of such assignment or participation such assignee shall have the same rights and benefits against the Borrower as it would have had if it were the Lender.

13.  Jurisdiction.

THE BORROWER, BY THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS DEBENTURE, EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF ANY OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDINGS.

(c) The rights and privileges of Lender under this Debenture shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns. All obligations of Borrower in connection with this Debenture shall bind Borrower’s successors and assigns, and Lender’s conversion rights shall succeed to any successor securities to Borrower’s common stock. (d) If any provision of this Debenture shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but this Debenture shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. (e) The waiver of any Event of Default or the failure of Lender to exercise any right or remedy to which it may be entitled shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent Event of Default or Lender’s right to exercise that or any other right or remedy to which Lender is entitled. No delay or omission by Lender in exercising, or failure by Lender to exercise on any one or more occasions, shall be construed as a waiver or novation of this Debenture or prevent the subsequent exercise of any or all such rights. (f) This Debenture may not be waived, changed, modified, or discharged orally, but only in writing.
 
15.  Notice, Etc.
